Where is the moon in its orbit when you canot see it at all?

When the moon is between Earth and the Sun, we can't see it. The Sun's glare makes it impossible to see - unless it's perfectly aligned and then we have an eclipse. Also when the earth is in between the moon and the sun the moon is not visible, this is called a new moon. This occurs becasue the visibility of the moon is dependant upon light from the sun being reflected (the moon produces no light of its own) thus if the earth is between the moon and the sun there is no light reaching the moon from the sun

A solar eclipse can only happen during a new moon?

That is because the Moon has to be between the Sun and the Earth, to cover the Sun from our point of view. When this happens, we see the dark side of the Moon - i.e., it is new moon.That is because the Moon has to be between the Sun and the Earth, to cover the Sun from our point of view.
